How To Make Cinnamon Sugar
Description
This easy recipe combines half a cup of granulated sugar with two tablespoons of ground cinnamon mixed thoroughly to distribute the spice evenly. The cinnamon sugar can be used immediately or stored in a labeled container for convenience.
The mixture is commonly sprinkled on buttered toast, stirred into oatmeal, dusted on fresh fruit, or added to snacks like popcorn and roasted nuts. It also works well as a topping for baked goods such as soft pretzels, crepes, and pancakes, adding a warm, sweet aroma.
Having cinnamon sugar pre-made makes it easy to add a touch of sweetness and spice to everyday dishes. Adjust the cinnamon amount to taste when mixing to achieve the preferred balance.
